You knew that it was only a matter of time that EA would bring the new Hot Pursuit to the iPhone. And here it is. Need for Speed Hot Pursuit by EA Mobile is now available for iPhone and iPod touch in the iTunes App Store. Here are some cool screens!

Among the highlights you will see the ability to play as the cop on a full career mode that takes you through 24 Career Events (for the first time ever in a Need for Speed game). You can start as a rookie and progress to the top of the ranks by collecting bounties, and choose from up to 15 high-performance police cars. When racing, extreme maneuvers will help you score bounty points, so use your nitro and hand brakes and grind, nudge, and drift your way across the roads. You can also go head-to-head as cop or racer via local WiFi or Bluetooth, choose from 5 cop and 5 racer cars, and play out the ultimate cat-and-mouse road race with friends.
